To Build You Up for Spring
Begin taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla today. It will do you good.
The heavier living and oloser eontineuient of the winter, the effects of
¿older, damp, changeable weather on the pores of the skin, and the harder
work of this season are probably telling on you.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, taken just now, will give your system just what
it needs and must have, and will help you over this hard spot—the rough
ground, as it w e r e — and quite likely save you from a serious illness later.
“ A stitch in time saves nine” is a wise old saw; therefore, don’t wait,
but be<nn to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla new. It purities and enriches the
blood, r e s t o r e s the appetite, and gives health and strength.
It effects its wonderful cures, not simply because it contains sarsapa­
rilla, but because it combines the utmost remedial values of more than 20
different ingredients, each greatly strengthened and enriched by this peculiar
combination. These ingredients are the very remedies successful phy i-
cians prescribe for the same diseases and ailments.
Begin taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla today. Get it in the usual liq id
form or in chocolated tablets known as Sarsatahs. 100 Doses One Dolla .

Pendleton—Word has been received
that Mrs. Isabella Taylor has rented
he. wheat farm near the town of Athe-
I na in the northeastern part of the coun­
ty for a cash rental of $10 per acre per
summer fallow crop. The lease on
these terms is to cover a term of six
years. This is one of the best wheat
raising sections of the county and even
of the Northwest, and while this price
seems to presume a great deal in favor
of the continued productivity of the

BENSON APPROVES BILLS.
Signs All Except the Duck Measure,
Which He Files.
Salem—Governor Benson has ap­
proved and signed all the bills passed
at the special session of the legisla-
ture.except the duck bill, which he has
filed in the office of the secretary of
state without signature.
The reason for his failure to sign
this bill is not given by the governor,
but it is thought possible the measure
came too near the taboo line of new
legislation and the executive did not
care to give the measure his specific
approval.
Speaker McArthur states that he has
carefully gone over every bill, and
President Bowerman did the same, and
that there is no possibility of mistakes
this time.
The work of revising the journals
of the two houses is being done by
Chief Clerks Barry, of the senate, and
Neuner, of the house, and their assist­
ants.
New Paper Mill E tirts.
Oregon City—The Hawley Pulp &
Paper company paper mills have start­
ed. The pulp mill has been in opera­
tion for several weeks and the sulphite
mill is also running. The company has
installed one of the largest paper ma­
chines on the coast, the machinery hav­
ing been ordered some time ago by the
manager, W. P. Hawley. The com­
pany’s sawmill at Milwaukie has been
in operation for the past five weeks.
With all of these mills in running or­
der, 200 to 300 men will be employed.
R. E. Bryan is secertary of the new
company.
System Voted Too Costly.
University of Oregon, Eugene—The
amendment proposing the innovation
of the graduate manager system at the
university was voted down in a meet­
ing of the associated students. The
amendment was the subject of an in­
terested discussion in which it was de­
cided that the financial circumstances
of the student body, at present, would
not permit the expense of hiring a
graduate manager. By an amendment
which was passed, all interstate debat­
ers and the intercollegiate and inter­
state orators wlil in the future receive
small “ Os” as emblems.
Farm ers’ Union in Baker.
Baker City—A farmers’ union, such
as is being successfully conducted in
other counties, is to be organized
among the wheat growers and the own­
ers of threshing outfits in Baker coun­
ty. Representatives of the Oregon
Threshers’ association, with headquart­
ers at Portland, will outline the bene­
fits to be derived from such an organi­
zation. One of the main objects of the
union will be to secure better roads
and thus enable the producers to haul
larger loads to market.
There are
more than 32 outfits in the county.

Million for Wheat Crop.
Pendleton—As a sequel to the grant­
ing of a large sack contract on the part
of the Inland Grain Growers’ associa­
tion last week is the acceptance of a
like contract by the Farmers’ Educa­
tional Co-operative union here. The
firm to secure the contract for the
sacks to be accepted by the farmers’
union was the Kerr, Gifford & Co.,
of Portland, and the contracted price
is reported between 6 and 6 ’4 cents,
or a . little lower than the price ac­
cepted by the Inland Crain Growers’
association.
The contract with the farmers’ union
calls for the purchase of between 300,-
000 and 1,200,000 sacks. The offer of
Kerr, Gifford & Co. stands for a short
time only, since it does not bind indi­
vidual members of the union, but each
member decides on the number of sacks
he desires and pays 10 per cent down
at tne time the order is given.
The Inland Grain Growers'assoc'i-
tion gave a contract to Balfour, Guth­
rie & Co., to accept between 200,000
and 500,000 sacks at a price understood
to be between 6 and 6)4 cents. I t is
known to be higher than the price paid
by the farmers’ union.
